Bridge Functionality Relationships for Improved Seismic Risk Assessment of Transportation Networks
Relationships between bridge damage and the resulting loss of functionality of the bridge are critical to assessing the impact of an earthquake event on the performance of the transportation network. This study addresses this data need by use of a Web-based survey of central and southeastern U.S. Department of Transportation bridge inspectors and officials. Results of the 28 responses are analy...
متن کاملVehicular networks in urban transportation systems
Recent results concerning the development and exploitation of wireless vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications in future generation intelligent transportation systems are discussed, as well as simulation techniques and tools used to effectively model such systems. Specifically, new algorithms to disseminate information in vehicle-to-vehicle networks have been developed, ...
متن کاملSeismic performance of transportation structures
Revolutionary changes which have taken place in the USA over the past 50 years in earthquake engineering as applied to transportation structures (highway bridges, and transit and high-speed rail aerial structures) are reviewed, giving emphasis to seismic design criteria, characterization of seismic ground motions, dual strategy of seismic design, modelling and dynamic analysis, assessment of se...
متن کاملThe Prevalence of Urban Areas Vulnerability to Seismic Risk (A Case Study of Region One, Tehran)
Urban planning rules and considering land use regarding faults can change the consequences of natural hazard such as earthquake. Vulnerability risk is increasing in Region 1 because of existence of the north fault, steep slopes and continuous construction of high-rise buildings. It is clear that Region 1’s Master Plan shouldn’t be prepared without considering natural hazard such as ...
متن کاملEstimating the safety performance of urban road transportation networks.
Transportation planning models are typically used to estimate future traffic patterns, peak period traffic, travel time, and various environmental or other related traffic flow characteristics. Unfortunately, traffic safety is seldom, if ever, explicitly considered proactively during the transportation planning process. This omission is attributed to various factors, including the lack of avail...
